Methods to Determine the Lagrangian Shear Experienced by Platelets during Thrombus Growth

Platelets can become activated in response to changes in flow-induced shear; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not clearly understood. Here we present new techniques for experimentally measuring the flow-induced shear rate experienced by platelets prior to adhering to a thrombus. We e...
